EMBROIDERY IN DIVERS CORDS.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented May 28, 1.907.

Application filed July 18, 1906. Serial No. 326,705.

To coZZ whom it may/concern:

Be it known that I, FRANGIA BAUDENON, maiden name Bertholin, a citizen of the Republic of France, residing at Vorey, I-Iaute- Loire, France, manufacturer, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in the Application of Embroidery in Divers Cords, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to an improved mode of support for the applications of embroideries in divers cords, as, for example, raised applications, known in France as pZumet-isexpress. The said applications are generally secured on the sheet of paper which keeps them well in the required shape up to the time when they are used and even when they are being put on the fabric. The said sheet not only constitutes a good support for the application because it cannot get out of shape, but it has also the advantage of presenting surfaces which are suitable for receiving printed indications as to the mode of use and the like. Yet it has the inconveniency of being difficult to tear away in the inner portions of the design, so that there is the risk of damaging either the application or the fabric. In order to avoid this inconvenience several kinds of either open or narrow supports have been devised, but as they must always be very thin and flexible, none of them are sufficiently solid to keep the application in the same shape.

My invention has for its object to still use these paper supports on account of the advantages they oifer, while avoiding at the same time the difficulty of tearing the support away after the application has been put on the fabric. For that purpose, the application is pasted onto a sheet of paper and the said sheet is perforated, or partially, or wholly, cut away on a line along the inner contours of the design. By this means, the application is firmly held in the required s ape, for it is connected by the whole of its outer contour to a sheet of paper of sufficient area to be enabled to keep its shape; furthermore, the difiiculty of tearing the paper away along the inner contours is done away with by reason of the previously cut or perforated line. The tearing of the paper away along the outer contours may again be facilitated by means of perforations previously made.

The accompanying drawing shows a plurality of embodiments of my invention.

Figure 1 represents an application on its support and then shows the said support separately; and Fig. 2 and 3 represent in the same manner modified forms or embodiments.

In Fig. 1, the sheet of paper a, is cut away by continuous cuts 1), along the inner contours of the application 0. Portions are therefore cut away in the support before the latter is placed on the fabric, and all that need be done is to tear the paper away along the outer contours of the application after the latter has been put on the fabric, which is not very difficult to do. For certain forms of letters or designs, small bands (1 may be left at the inside of the design to sustain such portions of the application as may require sustenance.

In Fig. 2, the sheet of paper a is also cut away by continuous cuts b along the inner contours of the application, and it is further cut away by perforated lines 6 along the outer contours, in order to still more facilitate the tearing of the paper away after the embroidery has been put onto the fabric.

In Fig. 3, the sheet of paper a is cut away on perforated lines I) along the inside of the application, and on other perforated lines e at the outside. The latter perforated lines are optional.

In these divers forms or embodiments, the supporting sheet of paper is, in spite of the cut away portions and especially when the latter are made on perforated lines, always enabled to retain its shape sufficiently to keep the applications in their proper form.

It will be understood that the application may consist of any kind of design, letter, monogram, or the like, and may be made of any sort of cord.
